Today was one of those days during which I only reached the studio at 4pm, after too many hours spent on a myriad of critical but unfortunately non-textile-related tasks. I managed to weave another 150 picks on Evelyn's Apricots, though, once I finally got started on the really important stuff.



Yes, you're right - the logo block says "12." I plopped the data into the image file without even reading it! Too late to fix now, unless I embroider a "2" into a "3." Black Permanent Marker might come in handy here. I will, however, edit all the other files in the jacquard queue to say "13" before I weave any other images.

I had to fix a broken warp end about 2 inches back; the replacement end is held in place by a pin with a large, flat yellow head. Broken warps don't happen very often on this loom - the thread I use for warp is mercerized cotton, which is usually very strong. Based on the location of the break, I suspect that a shuttle caught a warp end in the middle of the shed and walloped it hard enough to break the thread.
